Re: Maneaters of Kumaon by James Corbett - discussion thread

Marrakai,

I haven't read the article but scanned it. No author recorded? Was it Hadoke? DH seems to be writing more and more for the Explora, a Westley Richards organ.

My guess seeing no Rigby .275 mentioned was the author is trying to claim the Rigby .275 was a Westley Richards .275?!

Two points.
1. Corbett used a .275 M98 tonshoot the tiger one handed I believe.
2. He later was presented with a presentation Rigby .275 with the presentation engraved plate. This rifle is owned again by Rigby. And a replica produced of it as well.

The Westley Richards being the suppliers to the British gun trade goescagainst everything written previously. We will have to follow this up. I will invite comments by Rigby.
